Why do we build temples? Or care about family history? Why do we send missionaries all over the world to teach people about the gospel?
The answer is simple: We are preparing the world for Jesus Christ to return! That’s what the prophet recently spoke about in general conference.
The sooner we gather Israel through our temple and missionary work, the sooner the earth will be ready for Him to come and bring a thousand years of peace!
And as we do this spiritual work, we can alleviate suffering and help people physically too.
Here’s a link to read President Russell M. Nelson’s talk, “The Lord Jesus Christ Will Come Again.”
“Today I call upon you to rededicate your lives to Jesus Christ,” President Nelson said. “I call upon you to help gather scattered Israel and to prepare the world for the Second Coming of the Lord.”
Here’s a wallpaper you could use this week, if you want!
